I'm skeptical...but...
 
Don't worry...in 6 months we're bound to see real scans since Nintendo and GameFreak can't resist money and there have been hints in the anime galore of Johto Pokemon.
 
Those look quite nice and for the most part believable. I am doubtful just cause it's so soon, but i think sooner or later it's bound to happen. The only thin is i'd think they'd get new Sugi art for alot of the pokemon like what they did when FR/LG came out.
 
It's obviously fake. These are just DP scans with screenshots pasted over them. The content of the screenshot and the text of the caption don't match.
 
The black outlines around the Sugimori art look horrible. As Zhen said, the captions aren't right, but for those who don't read Japanese the art is a give-away. Sugimori would do new art for a remake.
 
Fr/Lg was announced using the original art, not the new art.

It's entirely likely that we'd be seeing old sugimori art being used when the G/S remakes are finally announced. Though, maybe they'd be better prepared for it - for all we know, they have a presskit of all the unupdated Pokemon art sitting waiting ready to go when the announcement is finally made.

Still, they're very well done fakes, and the boxart is sexy as hell - something I LONG for them to copy the shit out of when the real games come around. Gotta appreciate the work done in them - but anyone could tell they were fakes if only by the fact that there's a snowball's chance in hell of these games getting announced this early. If they're even announced this year it'd be pretty damn surprising.
 
It's amazing how convinced the fandom is that they'll be announced soon.... I love it.

Bets on 2009.

By 2009 GameFreak will be well on their way developing the 5th gen games on either the DS or whatever handheld comes out after the DS.

If there's going to be G/S remakes, they might as well get them out as soon as possible and it also helps ease the wait between gens. Not to mention they'll probably work on a third version of D/P quickly after that.

There was a 4 year gap between R/S and D/P and in that gap it was filled with FR/LG, Emerald, and the Ranger/Dungeon combo. We'll most likely be seeing the same thing repeat itself between D/P and gen 5.
 
R/S was released in Nov 2002
Colosseum was released at the end of 2003
Fr/Lg was announced around the same time and released mere months later in Jan 2004
Emerald was released in September 2005
D/P was released in September 2006

Going by that, we can expect:

Spin-Off at the end of this year
G/S Remake at some point next year, probably middle of the year
D/P third game in 2009
Gen V for 2010

Of course, there's no real pattern to go by other than what we had with the last Generation - and there's no real reason for them to follow that. So it's up in the air, but it probably will follow that - with a bunch of spin-offs thrown in for good measure.
 
Didn't we already get the spin-off, though? Battle Revolution. Unless they'll do an XD deal with it, too.

What I've learned to do is never expect anything to happen as it did the previous generation. When Crystal was merely announced, I thought that we'd start with a Mareep or something, instead of the three Johto starters as choices like what was the case in GS. Of course, I didn't know that Japan had that same sort of pattern with R/G then B.

Anyway, look at the previous three generations. I could never have predicted FRLG with just RS out, I figured we'd just get the third version and Stadium 3 like before.

Heck they might surprise us. Who knows if they'll go back and do Yellow on GBA?
 
I'd rather have a GS remake than a Yellow remake, though I'd be content with that, I guess...

Going by last generation we can expect to see the Gold and Silver remakes released in November of this year. Your calculations are way off. Also, a third game would be released in July 2008 if the "pattern" were to be followed.

I certainly would not say that a November release for the remakes would account for a "great" surprise. After all, with all past generations considered, an "add-on" handheld game follows roughly a year after the generation's debut - be it Blue (the "secondary" third game), Crystal (the third game) or FireRed and LeafGreen (an individual series of the same generation).

No, my 'calculations' are spot on. The year after Ruby/Sapphire were released, Colosseum was the Pokemon game that dominated 2003's release lists. Following that, FireRed/LeafGreen were released the next year, being 2004's main Pokemon game, Emerald being 2005's and D/P being 2006's, obviously.

If we can expect to see one major Pokemon game release every year (and we can, Nintendo will be expecting it for teh monies afterall, it's not that difficult to believe that at some point this year we'll see a release for another Pokemon Wii or DS spin-off game, sometime next year we'll see the G/S remakes, the year after that we'll see a third game to D/P and then we might possibly see Generation V in 2010.

But, like I said, there's no real reason they'd stick to that pattern other than the need to have a game out every year.

It's still pushing it for G/S Remade to be on the radar any time this year. If they were to follow Fr/Lg's precise pattern even, they still wouldn't be announced until the very end of the year.

If your established pattern is merely limited to the concept of dedicating each year to a new game, then there are no calculations of which to speak. My own assertion is based on the gap of time between the five releases of Generation III (Ruby/Sapphire, Colosseum, FireRed/LeafGreen, Emerald and XD). The gap between Ruby/Sapphire and FireRed/LeafGreen was one year and two months.

I should also note that Emerald was released in September 2004, rather than in 2005. Even if it had been released in 2005 (as it was outside Japan), it would have still been assigned to a year of another game release - XD's.

Besides, I fail to see how even your own conclusion goes against the possibility of a 2007 release date for the remakes. Do you really think that 2007's Pokémon game will be the Mystery Dungeon sequel or otherwise in that direction? Have the spin-off games become as notable as the RPG series?

Adding one year and two months to September 2006 results in an estimated date of November 2007. That and only that would be following FireRed and LeafGreen's precise pattern.
